RagingStorm: I think today's boo-boo is that class foo {}; $foo = new foo(); if ($foo == null) is different in PHP5. They'll sort it out, eventually. Maybe.

richardlynch: ouch

MACscr

anyone know of a true type text generator scripti found this one

richardlynch

Stormchaser: The other good point is that they alter the code, and the phpt test file to test the code with it, and then BC is broken as that's not really a regression test...

Guideline #10) We don't support script(s). We help you *write* PHP, not recommend or download and install/hack/modify/adapt/use pre-written scripts

Dangermouse

dave007: For future reference: www.php.net/string

MACscr

Hmm, never new this channel was an official support area where anyone had to help anyone on anythingso with that in mind, general questions really shouldnt be an issue

Stormchaser

php-bot

Guideline #11) ##php is a manual supplement. Read the manual FIRST, If after reading the manual you still have difficulties, then you are welcome to ask questions in ##php

MACscr

the manual is actually more of a dictionary or reference material than a text book or how to, but maybe i just look at it wrong

kibble

examples is the way to go

row

google + php.net is all you need for the basics

MACscr

yep, those always help me the most

Stormchaser

MACscr: No language that I know of offers logical thinking with it. That's all you need -- logic.

MACscr

unfortunately the examples i have been finding havent been working as specified

Dangermouse

Stormchaser: Damn it, that's where i've been going wrong

MACscr

dangermouse: lol

Stormchaser

Dangermouse: :)

winmutt

is there any way to pass 2 values to a switch??? perhaps an array???? I have a switch that if the value is pgsql i use information_schema table to get metdata, mysql i use show create table, however mysql5 now has information schema...i guess an array is probably best way to accomplisgh this in a switch huh

insin

how about changing it to use 'pgsql', 'mysql4' and 'mysql5' as your possible values instead?

||cw

or mysql and mysql5, for backwards compat

shadfc

ok, question about gd. createimagefromjpeg() is causing php to die without errors. I am getting some weird entries in /tmp like 20060511-211120-209.168.175.66-request_body-YoEi. Ive tried both php4 and php5 now, and they both show the same behavior. I realize this may be a bad image, but all of my programs (gimp, imagemagick, windows image preview, firefox, etc) display it fine and dont complain about it being bad or corrupted. Any ideas?

i could try that next, i was using the debs from dotdeb.orgheh, vim is all i use

Stormchaser

poor creature

archivist

vim does not limit to 25 lines

winmutt

shadfc: why wouldnt you use the std deb pkg?

row

winmutt: most likely running stable.

winmutt

Stormchaser: whats your editor of choice?

shadfc

well, i was running php5 and apache2

winmutt

row: thats why i hate precompiled bins distros

shadfc

other than that, im running stable

winmutt

shadfc: compile it from source dont be a woos

Stormchaser

winmutt: /dev/urandom

row

pico for nix and phpedit if I am on windows :)

winmutt

Stormchaser: hehgah pico

lith

pico rocks

winmutt

Stormchaser

winmutt

pico was great in 1990 when i only had a monchrom monitor

archivist

lith

stormchaser: in a console situation?

winmutt

Stormchaser: i find kate less cpu intensive

lith

pine still kicks assi dont care what you all say *grumble*

winmutt

pine is gooddoes it do imap?

Dangermouse

(Action) discovered pc-pine recently woot

Stormchaser

winmutt: I didn't say kate. I said kwritelith: in console, I use vim.

row

winmutt

Stormchaser: and i was just commenting that i found kate less intensive than kwrite.

row

winmutt

sigh

Dangermouse

winmutt

Dangermouse

mattmcc

It's a police action?

Stormchaser

winmutt

Stormchaser : caveat, not that I have really compared the two... I used kwrite for class notes on my p2 300mhz laptop... maybe thats why it was such a hogquiet down ppl, your raising the channel temperature(Action) read freenode policies today

Dangermouse

winmutt

and yet i still havent found a section on op abuse

Dangermouse

winmutt: Op abuse? Surely not

lith

Anyone seen the celestine prophecy?

winmutt

Dangermouse: psychological make up of an op abuser is well amusing

Dangermouse

winmutt: eh?

lith

(Action) abuses the ops in #php every chance he gets :D

Anyone here do php on a mac? or does it really not matter what your environment is?

MACscr

doesnt matter

Remowylliams

Hello sorry if this question has been asked a bazillion times. but can you have ssi and php parsing on the same document?

MACscr

my dev uses a mac for his php dev

Stormchaser

winmutt: From what I saw, kwrite takes 35m Ram, while kate takes 39m ram... (both 0.0 CPU). I can't see how can kwrite be worse than kate

winmutt

Stormchaser: read what i said above

Dangermouse

What, Mac user's code? I thought they just edit video, do web development and make pretty graphics :-)

winmutt

mac osx > *i dotn even own one

what does this mean?[11-May-2006 16:21:32] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/uploader.php on line 3

winmutt

means what it says

Stormchaser

!+parse error

php-bot

Parse errors show the line where parsing failed, not nessicarily where you made your mistake. Try looking a line or two above the reported error.
